Thank you cygan, it is a very interesting topic, indeed. After a few days it seems that nobody has anything to object, and merits speak for themselves, so I'm adding it to our list of ongoing translations .

We should (me the first!) focus on this one and also give 1miau's topic a push.

On the other hand, it saddens me to see that this year there won't be any pumpkin carving contest. If we had known earlier we could have organized it ourselves, but at this point I think that a week is not enough time.

i stumbled across an interesting topic today, which has already been created by @CryptopreneurBrainboss in 2019 and has also already been translated into two other languages (indonesian & filipino).
the thread is called: [Guide] Factors to consider before joining paid signature campaigns. and it is about various points and factors that should be considered by any applicant before he submits his application in a signature campaign
it would be very helpful that this very important topic is now translated by all aobt members into the respective languages. i personally will now start the german and then the polish translation

Thank you Gazeta, translation added to the list. I wrote URD in the link, if it is preferable to use PAK or a different abbreviation let me know and I'll correct it.



That's very helpful and it's good to remember it from time to time.

Letting us know here when changes have been done saves us from having to continuously check for updates, and it can be done by the original topic's OP, any member of the Alliance who notices it, or any member of the forum in general.

About the "last change", however, I don't think it is necessary, because anyone can easily see the date of last edition on top of the post. But it can be a good way to highlight that changes have been made.

It is indeed very difficult to stay up to date with the translations, maybe it would also work like this, the creator of the original post announces the change here in the thread and in the second post after the translations the latest version date is added at the end?

At the end, for example, "last change on 16.10.2023".

If there is interest I have created two threads/translations (the second is still being finalised) for use to buy common cryptocurrencys without a KYC requirement and the use of a BTCs mixer.

German Translations:

Hey Porf, please be aware that an Urdu translation has been provided for Campaign to improve posting quality for local boards. The translation was made by someone which is not part of AOBT -- HONDACD125 -- but I believe it can be mentioned in our topic. The Urdu translation can be found here: پوسٹ کے معیار کو بڑھانے کے لیے مہمات.

I hope that this will give more courage to others to try to work on this translation.

Mmm, not so early IMO, taking into account that there are only two weeks left for Halloween, and that last year's contest's thread was opened on October the 8th.

ChiBitCTy, are you already planning a second annual contest? Considering the success of the first one, a new edition is almost mandatory We will be attentive to whether a new contest is held, but if you read us let us know here too.

I don't know anything about a new edition of this contest. Maybe it's too early yet? However, it won't hurt to contact the last year's organiser directly.

In any case, if such contest will take course, I agree that it should be translated in as many languages as possible. Count on me for Romanian translation!

Guys, I was thinking... Anybody knows whether there is a Pumpkin Carving competition planned for 2023?

This is an event that I especially like, and I would like to propose to translate it in our local boards to encourage participation, but I've checked Games & Rounds, where I think it should be posted, and found nothing. Please, let me know if anyone knows if it's planned or not. Otherwise, I will contact last year's organiser.

A new project is interested in translating some crypto related content into two of the languages we cover. Both translators have been contacted already. In a few days we should decide the best way to manage this kind of tasks: please, if you have any ideas you want to share, answer via PM in the conversation we opened a couple of weeks ago and thus we will have advanced some work.

Updated 

Done




Thank you for the summary, Gazeta. That's what I thought at first glance, but you have saved me the time of looking into detail just in case.

Changes has also been implemented in the Spanish translation (roughly two minutes of editing).

roksana.hee, 1miau, Peanutswar, mindrust, dansus021, zasad@, Kavelj22, just a friendly reminder in case you didn't notice joker_josue's message.

i have also included the new tool in my polish translation. thanks for the note - somehow the update has passed me by this time

Indonesian translation is also done. This is so incredible, as this topic got 12 translations so far and it has most translations from all the topics this group translated.


Thank you dansus021! Great job!

Porf, please add this translation as well to OP.

---

Thank you for your efforts, zasad@! You are the first forum user which manages to create a proper translation to this topic (although there was another earlier attempt -- but it was never finished). I know, creating an adaptation was not easy, so a big congrats to you for making this possible.

Despite the trolls, I still believe that we can improve the posting quality inside local boards and the more we try to help here the more chances we have!

---

Thank you for this update, joker_josue! The changes have been implemented on the Romanian translation. I hope that the other translators will make the changes as well.

For better visibility, the changes which should be done are the following:

- remove the older "New" strings from earlier versions
- add the new implemented sections -- ZIP Tool and Statistics.

All the new translations have been added to our 2nd post (let me know if I forgot any), and AgoraDesk has been moved to the list of finished translations.

In the future I suggest not to translate more ANNs pro bono to avoid further spam accusations, and stick to educational topics. Paid translations are welcome, as said in the OP, but I think it is better not to mix them with those listed in the 2nd post, that are made altruistically, because it can lead to confusion.

On the other hand, I'm glad to inform you that I went back in time (in one piece) and avoided the recent dispute, so nothing happened here

AoBTers, we have some little homework for this weekend. Thanks for letting us know joker_josue.

I think that, unfortunately, I have a pending task moderating this thread after the last events

Please, reconsider your words and edit your posts when necessary, like AHOYBRAUSE said, after some sleep, before I clean up this mess in a few hours when I get back home.

Reputation goes in another well-known section of the forum.

Don't be discouraged because a few (possibly) uneducated but (at least) shitpost apologists or even low-level posters have appeared there and tried to belittle our campaign. It happened in my local board as well: the most butthurt offenders will show up there and belittle any effort to increase posting quality. It's nothing unexpected and it's a good sign that our topic is overdue.
I've addressed the criticism here more in detail because it's off-topic in AOBT: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.62911675

Well, any sort of "advertising" translations getting offered here (or not getting offered) is not my issue because I'm not a member of AOBT.
Porifiiri even opposed it from what I can see.
But maybe we can have a clarification what this post should achieve?
I don't want to misinterpret it and that's why I've only cited the most obvious parts.
To keep it on-topic here, I would like to suggest to keep the discussion about our posting quality campaign in the dedicated topics.

I translated it into Russian
Campaign to improve posting quality for local boards
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.62904978

I tried to adapt this topic as much as possible for the Russian community and have already received the expected criticism.

Porfirii, please update the 2nd post.
The Russian community has completed the task of up-to-date translations. And the community already has a good portfolio of native translators.

First, I'm happy to have your viewpoints here and it's already nice to see, that we can get into a solution. 

Just some points from my side because I believe it's just a big misunderstanding:


1.

If that part is intended to be addressed against GazetaBitcoin, I have to say it's entirely different from what I've experienced. Unfortunately, we have a lot of trolls and abusers here on Bitcointalk and maybe some of these trolls got offended by being called out by GazetaBitcoin and GazetaBitcoin had "to pay the prize" for calling them out (= getting baseless rants from these trolls all day, like our perv Timelord). It happened to me as well and these trolls can come out in a strong force. It's a common thing how trolls operate, when being called out, these trolls try to run amok and cause big upheaval. 


2.

We all know that nullius is an idiot and an abuser himself (I've left him a negative trust as well), when he lost his mind completely by negatively tagging fillippone.
nullius should be nowhere near DT (not even member of DT2), while GazetaBitcoin has proven to be a valuable DT1 member in my opinion and I appreciate it to have Ratimov in DT1 as well, that's why I hope the issue can be settled in a positive way. 


3.

It might appear that some sorts of translations are causing indeed a considerable amount of discomfort, especially "advertising" translations. We had some experts in our local board. And I've had discussions with our incompetent moderator @mole0815 in the past as well but that was only because he didn't move them into the appropriate sub-section (project development, as we don't have a sub-section for project ANNs). In my opinion, "advertising" translations are legitimate* but should be posted in a section, where they belong and are not offensive.

* also depends on which site / service / shitcoin / scam  etc. is advertised

I'm hopeful, that we can just settle it here, everyone remove distributed negative trusts and is nice again. As a DT1 member, everyone has a skin thick enough to sort it out. 
And we can continue here to be on-topic because it's [AOBT] discussion here. 

I would like to take this opportunity to inform you that I made an update to the TalkImg OP.
If you want to update, here's a note.
